The bodyguard standing outside the ward checked my handbag carefully. When he was sure everything was OK, one of the bodyguards motioned for me to come in. None of them noticed what I had hidden in my sleeve.

I went into the ward. Gina was sitting on a large hospital bed with her back against a pillow, dressed in light blue. There were many red roses in a glass jar beside her bed, but they didn't look so fresh anymore. The aroma of the roses overshadowed the smell of disinfectant.

Gina saw me. Her red lips curled upward into a victorious smile. She put the hand with the needle in it on her belly, as if she were hiding something precious under it.

"You don't look well, my sister!" She drawled. "Did father punish you again? You're a wretch!"

I walked up to her, my eyes fixed on her arrogant, smug face.

"Yes. My sister, as you wish. You're just like your w.hore mother."

My words made Gina even more arrogant. She caressed her flat belly in an exaggerated way that made it impossible for me

    We found a cafe near the hospital. There are not many guests here. The waitress in the pink apron was standing next to Ron with the menu, and I could clearly see her swaying her hips and rubbing Ron's arms. Ron, on the other hand, seemed to enjoy it. He didn't turn down an offer from a strange woman. As the waitress served us coffee, she kept glancing at the Rolex Ron was wearing.How can a woman not like a man who's rich and young? And for a woman to flirt so actively, what man can resist the temptation? Money lets a man do whatever he wants, but a woman has to remain faithful to her marriage. How ridiculous that sounds!"Ron!" I hoped my voice would bring his fantasies about the waitress back to reality. "I think I have something to say!""Okay, I'm listening!" Ron leaned back in his leather chair and looked at me calmly."Even though our marriage was a business one, I always tried to do my job as a wife after we got married. Once we were a loving couple. I have always regarded you

    I watched Ron stand by Gina's bed and kiss her on the forehead, but the next minute he was mercilessly telling the paramedics to move Gina to a nursing home in the countryside. To prevent Gina from hurting herself when she woke up, he had her hands tied to the sides of the bed.Gina was loaded into the ambulance in her sleep, and I watched it drive away. A part of my trouble was taken away for the time being, which made it easier for me to plan my revenge.Well, now I'm looking forward to the party on the yacht tonight.……At 5 P. M. , Ron drove me to the pier. A small ship was waiting for us at the dock. The ship took us out into the deep sea for about an hour, and the sky was already dark and the stars were as beautiful as sparkling diamonds.An illuminated luxury yacht, about 150 metres long, lies on the ocean. Two bodyguards in black suits let us on the yacht after making sure we weren't carrying anything dangerous.The bellboy in charge of reception took us to a special room for

    I didn't know that the minimum was $100,000 to start until I got to the table. Ron wanted to show everyone how strong he was, so he bought $20 million worth of chips at once. I sat uneasily next to him. Frade sat across from him. He got the same amount of chips.Paul, the Plutocrat Federation representative, and his daughter were also at the table, along with three other strange men. Sarah purposely sat next to Frade, whose eyes hovered between Ron and Frade with a look of amusement.Ron whispered to me that there were other family representatives at the game. Now I understand why he had to exchange such a large amount of chips at once. This looks like an ordinary game, but in fact it is a hidden game between families.It's all about the merger case. This is about a European gas merger. The interest is not in natural gas, but in the energy trading rights behind it. Everyone at the table had their eyes fixed on the cards on the table, like a pack of hungry wolves on a piece of fresh me

    Frade lifted his head like a boxing champ and led me away from the table. He didn't care what the others whispered about him. Some called him a fool, others mocked Ron's cowardice.I repressed my anger and followed Frade back to his room. As soon as he entered the room, he tried to kiss me, but I slapped him hard."You b.astard! You got what you wanted. You humiliated your enemies and you humiliated me!" I shouted at him. "You had a plan, didn't you?"Instead of fighting back, Frade said calmly, "If it makes you feel better to hit me, then go ahead and hit me. I promise I won't hit you back!""Answer my question!" I pushed hard into his chest, and my eyes welled up.Even though I know we are just allies based on profit, I still hope that he really cares about me, just a little bit. But tonight he just used me as a tool for revenge.He got what he wanted, and my heart broke."Excuse me!" Said Frade, "I just want you to see who your husband really is. He is selfish and greedy. He could

    "Eva""What?"My fingers caressed his cheek. They are red and hot."Can I f.uck you?" He asked, sucking my throat."Please," he said, blowing hot air into my eardrums in a way I couldn't resist.I nodded in agreement and reached for his p.enis, then held it in my hand. He's big. He is much bigger than I thought. I could feel his pulse beating fast in my garden as he pushed his head against my entrance and explored the edges.I got loose, but not loose enough. I don't know why my body is so tight tonight."AH." He entered my body. It didn't hurt much, but it was almost too much. It's definitely not easy. However, that feeling is so…… There is hunger in every part of my body that he pushes against."You're too big," I moaned."You can have it," he moaned, buried in my neck. His whole body trembled nervously."I can," I told him, in a husky voice.I looked at him. His eyes were closed. The orange light set off against his skin, and his chin was taut."What if it's too much?"Frade lowered

    I didn't wake up until it was near lunchtime the next day. Frade was lying next to me, resting one hand on my head and the other on the back of his head, staring straight ahead. He seemed to have woken up a long time ago, but he didn't want to disturb me, so he just lay there.Although my body was uncomfortable and my v.agina was tingling from last night's s.ex, the smell of his hormones made me want to have him again.Frade satisfied my desire for s.ex when I was reborn. He brought every cell of my body back to life! I like him, but not just sexually."Are you hungry?" He turned and kissed my forehead. "Would you like to have breakfast in your room?""It's time for lunch!" My voice was hoarse, and last night's moaning left my throat a little tired.I stroked Frade's chest and ran my fingers along his muscular lines. How I wished we were a real couple right now, how I wished I could be close to his heart, but I knew it was Mia and not me that remained in his heart."Frade!" I whispere

    When Ron saw me, he acted as if nothing had happened, as if I had just gone to the break room once. My face was calm, too. I think we have an unspoken understanding of what happened yesterday. He was delighted to learn how much Frade was planning to bid. He even suggested that I should see Frade more often in private, to get more useful information.I promised to help him as much as I could, and I took the opportunity to suggest that I look for a new bank to borrow money from. Ron trusts me enough to know that the bank I'm looking for is infallible. If an outsider saw us at this time, he must think that we are a loving couple. Over the next few days, however, Ron barely went home to sleep. The tacit understanding between us also lets our final feelings disappear. Our relationship right now is kind of like an open marriage. I don't care who he sleeps with, he doesn't care where I go.Of course, I'm no longer the idiot wife who only serves her husband. I was seeing Frade while Ron was h

    "B.itch!" Muttered the drunk. He flung the empty bottle in my direction. Then he stumbled and the bottle just slipped over my shoulder.The bottle fell to the ground with a shattering sound, and one of the broken necks touched my heel. When the drunkard saw that I had not been hit, the curses in his mouth were even dirtier.I quickly bent down to pick up the neck of the broken bottle. The jagged cracks reflected golden spots of light, but the drunkard's ugly face began to approach. I thrust the end of the neck into his chest."Ah!"Blood flowed from his chest, the broken neck still firmly inserted into his chest. The man tried to reach out and pull the neck out of his chest, but he just took two steps back and slumped over the railing.My fight coach told me that I could attack certain parts of the body, and that people would immediately lose their fighting strength or even die. I believe I am a good student. Because the drunk has completely lost his arrogance. He was curled up on the

I don't know what they talked about.After the meeting, he got on a plane and left Mexico. But he left me behind, and I knew exactly what he was doing.I was not surprised to see Daley in front of me as the representative of Mexico. Instead, I had the urge to punch him, but I held back.During my stay in Mexico, Daley was responsible for receiving me as the Mexican representative. The night we met, he took me to a fancy restaurant in Mexico City.“I had no idea that the famous Daley was already a member of council.”I looked across at Daley. The last time we parted, he looked pale. But now, beneath his mask of calm lies a kind of ineffable pride.“Do you have to talk to me like that?” Daley smiled at me, “It's been a long time since we were alone together and I miss you so much.

    “Why do you always have to decide before you tell me?” Frade asked, smoking hard on the couch. “Didn't I tell you to consult me before you made any decisions?”“Because this time there is no room for negotiation.” I stood in front of him, looking at him like that. My heart felt extremely painful. But I had to tell him about my decision. We have to face the truth eventually.“Mia was dead.”Frade's face froze for a few seconds. “She's dead?”“She escaped from the sanatorium, frantically searching for her father and questioning him as to why he had abandoned her. Mickle's bodyguard shot her for endangering the president. It happened right in front of me.”I have mixed feelings about Mia's death. Even though she was detestable, her death was like a razor blade slicing through my unsuspecting skin. It was instant, clear pain.Frade continued to smoke heavily. He didn't show much emotion about Mia's death. But I guess he felt the same way.He was in love with Mia. Her love was fake, but hi

    I didn't expect Mickle to agree to meet with me as soon as I contacted him. But I had to go jogging with him, so I changed into a white sweatshirt and drove to his estate.We jogged side by side on a path near the estate, with two bodyguards following us. I can't remember the last time I ran in the morning. I was a little out of it at first, but after a while, I got my breath back.“Do you need a few minutes?” Mickle, who was wearing a black, short-sleeved tracksuit, turned to me. “Looks like you haven't exercised in a while.”“I'm fine,” I said.“I'll wait for you at the lake ahead,” he said as he continued to run.By the time I got to the lake, he was resting. A burly bodyguard offered him water, but Mickle gave it to me.“You need water,” he says.“Thank you.” I opened the bottle cap and took a sip. The bodyguard somehow took out another bottle of water and handed it to him.“It's a rare day for you to call me,” Mickle said, his face flushed but his tone calm. Judging from his stro

    According to Vickie's will, her body will be transported back to Italy for burial. So Frade decided to hold a simple farewell ceremony for Vickie in the manor. After the ceremony, he would be in charge of sending Vickie's body back home with Mark.Vickie was right that no Sicilian would refuse the dying wish to return home. This time, they offered to open their arms to the Logan family to show their deepest sorrow.The place of the farewell ceremony was chosen in the hall of the manor, and all the participants were dressed in black as a sign of mourning. Black-and-white photographs of Vickie's life were placed in the centre of the hall. As her body was temporarily placed in the hospital morgue, guests had to mourn over her picture in silence.Each of the guests held a white chrysanthemum in their hands and placed it in front of the tablet. In the photo, she looked at everyone with a smile on her face, her eyes looking at everything indifferently.Frade greets guests who have come to p

    In the room, Vickie is lying on her bed, a private nurse holding a clear plastic tube attached to a ventilator up her nose. Since a trip to Italy, Vickie has grown weaker. Mark told me that she was taken home in an ambulance from a private hospital after she landed.“Why don't you take her to the hospital?” I asked in a low voice.“She's determined to go home,” Mark said. “No one can change her mind, and you know it.”“The patient needs to rest. Please leave the room,” the middle-aged brown-haired nurse said politely.Mark and I left the room just as Frade and Vickie's doctor came out of the other room. That was the room where they had been discussing Vickie's condition, and Frade's sullen face didn't look good.It's terrible.“Mark, please help me get Dr. Hans out of here.” Frade's voice was hoarse and tired, and the stubble on his face seemed to have grown overnight, making him look even gloomier.“Are you all right, darling?” I stroked his cheek and looked at the man in front of me

    A middle-aged woman in a plain grey T-shirt and light blue jeans sat on the living room sofa, her hands on her closed knees, her eyes downcast. The coffee in front of her was steaming, and it was obvious that she hadn't touched it.“Hey!” I whispered. “I'm Eva.”“Hi!” The woman stood up at once. She looked at me a little stiffly. “My name is Joe. I'm a friend of Joan's. We're all in the same union.”“How did you find me?” I motioned for her to sit down.“Joan gave me your number,” said Joe, “And we found your place. I'm sorry to bother you so late. Joan needs your help.”“You didn't come alone?” I asked curiously.“I have another colleague with me,” Joe said truthfully. “He's waiting for me outside.”“Is he here to ensure your safety?” I looked at her. “Since your friend is worried about your safety, why are you looking for me? So, what's the matter?”“We just...” Joe looked down sheepishly. “Just in case. But Joan says you're a trustworthy person. You're not like your father.”“I hel

    During my stay in the hospital, I received many greeting cards and gifts from strangers. They piled gifts for the baby in front of the hospital or at the nurses' station, and a few fanatical fans even pretended to be nurses sneaking into the ward to see the baby. Fortunately, the fanatics were spotted by the doctor on duty and called the police, who quickly took them away.To prevent this from happening, Frade picked me and my baby up from the hospital in the middle of the night and took us back to the manor. Frade also put guards around the manor to keep out outsiders, leaving Mark in charge of all security, and Liv came to accompany me.Frade was on the move for us to leave the United States. This time he didn't entrust anyone but himself. He didn't tell me that he had met with those people. But from his tired face after each return, I can guess that our departure would become a distant dream.When Vickie learned of Frade's plan, she decided to go to Italy herself, because most of t

    “What does a newborn baby get him?” I stared at Ian. “He's already president.”“The president just wants to show his concern for you,” Ian explained patiently. “This baby is his granddaughter. You're family.”“What an official statement,” I said. “Just this once. I need at least three months off for the rest of the year. During that time, neither I nor my baby could be seen in any media.”“Deal,” Ian readily agreed.“I'll give you some time to get ready,” Ian said. “I'll let you know when the president is arriving at the hospital.”After Ian leaves, Frade gently places the baby in her own crib, where she falls fast asleep without crying or fussing. Frade walks to the bedside, his eyes brimming with anger. I knew he was unhappy with my decision, and as I prepared for his wrath, he just lowered his voice and said, “Why did you agree to his request?”“Because I can't say no.” I looked at him. “Ian's right. Mickle is the baby's grandfather. I have no reason to say no to him visiting his g

    “Do you have to go to the inauguration?” Frade asked as he peeled the apple. “The doctor told me your due date is coming up.”The skin he cut off with a knife was attached to the flesh of the apple, and less than two-thirds of the whole apple was left in his hand. I stared at the silver knife in his hand and asked, “Do you have a problem with apples?”“I hope this knife didn't cut apples, but...”“Stop,” I reminded him. “Watch your mouth.”“I don't want you to go to a crowded place,” Frade said, handing me a peeled apple. “In that case, all eyes are on the new president. If you're not feeling well or...”“Ian will have a nurse with me,” I said. “Besides, I only promised to be at the inauguration, and as soon as it's over, I'll be home.”“I'm going with you,” Frade said, “Or I won't trust you.”“Sure,” I readily agreed. “I'll tell Ian and get him to set you up.”“All I have to do is stand next to you.” Frade walked to the bed and brushed my cheek, then put a hand on my belly.“She's mo
